What Happened

Pune Municipal Corporation will demolish nine civic quarters and 32 private wadas declared unsafe following structural audits. The nine municipal buildings in Wakdewadi, built 50-60 years ago, house 288 residential flats across three stories. The PMC issued evacuation notices after a woman died when a tree fell during recent heavy rain. Residents demanded local rehabilitation; the civic body offered homes in Warje and Hadapsar areas instead.
